Discover Santa: when Santa Claus descends from heaven

Do you think we have to wait until December to see Santa? If so, go for a ride in the Missouri!

If you are told Santa, you think of the snow carpet landscapes, smoked chimneys in the sky tinted with flakes, children blotted in their scarf forming a snowman. You think of December, during the period of chocolates, chorals in the streets, sparkling illuminations and tables filled with traditional comforting dishes. For you, it is necessary to wait until the end of the year to have the chance to see, such as a filtering star drawn by velvet reindeer, the most famous of barbus men.

However, if you ask a Missouri resident, and more specifically about Branson, he will teach you a good one! There, Santa does not wait for the day celebrating the birth of the little Jesus, to point out the tip of his nose! Moreover, he is not even alone! In July, in Branson, it is almost a thousand Christmas Fathers who land in town!

The little secrets of Santa Claus

The lutins are little jokers, but Santa too! You have to attend Discover Santa, or read us, to discover his secrets. In fact, our beloved Santa Claus are also good business men! And this global event, at the pace of professional congress, is also there to give a little boost to their career! Are you surprised? Wait till you read the rest.

Secret Santa 1: filter the most beautiful costume

It is first of all during this convention, that our Santa Claus Fathers will be able to find the best equipment and treat to perfection their appearance. This seasonal job requires great credibility and Santa Claus is not anyone! So out of the question to see a single piece of cabbage squeeze or squeeze septic eyebrows.

These hundreds and hundreds of barbus men don’t hesitate to put their hand in the purse to negotiate the exemplary stage outfit. To tell you the truth, you still have to count several hundred dollars for an irreproachable Santa costume. Well, an outfit sewn by the gold hands of the lutins, against the cold of the North Pole and which never sat down despite the passages in the chimneys, it is normal that it is worth its price...

You will have understood it, you must be sacredly passionate and altruistic to be Santa Claus. But after all, seeing so many stars in the eyes of small and large, does it really have a price? Isn’t it wonderful to become a legend character, the time of enchanted parties?

Our legends of the North Pole, as long as they are dressed in white, red, gold or green, can belong to all styles and times!

At the same time, when we have a mission to make the children of the world happy, we must respect a few rules!

After all, it’s complicated to be alone to spoil so many wise children in a single starry night... Isn’t that a little bit of cabbage?
